Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention! We’re working on the issue!

Hey Mallory! Glad to see you on the forum, and congratulations on being the first to start a topic!

Still working on ironing out some of the bugs, but I hope you enjoy it here and that this forum can become a great resource and encouragement!

Hi all! Oooo! I love Lord of the Rings, too! 🙂 And the Chronicles of Narnia!! Favorite from LotR is definitely Return of the King. All of the strings are tied up and the story comes to its grand finale in it. 😀

As far as picking favorite books goes– it was tortuous to choose just one until last year when I read “This Present Darkness” by Frank…[Read more]

And now I understand, after much searching, the Toothbrush Twins idea…

My toothbrush is blue and white. xD

@Taylor: Indeed I do!

@Sage: Sounds awesome! Can’t go wrong with airships and pirates! XD

Hrmmm… what helped me when I was writing younger audience sort of kids books was I thought like they might think. Not all the time, mind you, but think about what they now and what they love and play off that.

@Skye: XD My reading often comes in spurts as well… Mostly due to my lack of time x3

@Taylor: Awesome! You’ll have to tell me what you think! I’m working on that myself. And welcome to the Forum! It’s a really great place 😉 Let me know if you have any questions or ask our awesome forum moderator.

@Sarah: I go in spurts 😛

@ Skye — That sounds awesome! My mom is a big fan of Lori’s, although I’ve never read one of her books myself… and inspirational stuff is good!! Make no mistakes there 😉

@Bethany — Coolio! Hope you enjoy it! One choice can change your future and what not xD

Just got done reading Donovan’s Daughter by Lori Wick. I’m not as awesome as everyone else and I read inspirational stuff instead of adventure. (Except I really like Th Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness whatever her name was XD)

@Bethany: Hah! That counts as reading, methinks! I quite enjoyed Divergent when I read it myself. More morals and reasons for death in there than in the Hunger Games. In my opinion, Insurgent is even better. I haven’t read Allegiant yet though. Hope you enjoy reading them and continue on with the series!

As for an update for what I am reading, I…[Read more]

Whoa. I know you. O.o

Awesome to have you, Hannah! When can I expect to see some of your writing on here? 🙂

Honey boo boo. I dunno if she uses a toothbrush or would recognize one if she saw one, so it would have to be purely for comedic effect.

Cool potatoes taste better than cool beans.

I just printed out the first 64 pages of it… I like to do 50 page edits–take a pause to edit every 50 pages, roughly. Kind of helps me stay grounded in the…[Read more]

Right, the problem is parents (specifically fathers) are not disciplining their children, but are expecting the church to do it for them. The church should just be supplemental. The church should equip fathers to disciple their children, and reinforce what fathers are teaching. Instead, there’s a disconnect, and fathers aren’t teaching, and youth…[Read more]

I checked out your blog, and I REALLY liked your latest post (http://contentedseamstress.blogspot.com/2014/01/our-generation-and-church_15.html) and definitely agreed with you. Have you seen the film “Divided”? It talks more about why youth are leaving the church. Here is a link. It’s less than hour long, and pretty…[Read more]
